The paper discusses the features of criminological planning. The conceptual apparatus that acts as a tool for criminological planning and crime prevention is clarified. A number of concepts as «criminological planning», «strategic plan», «crime mapping», «individual planning» are characterized. A number of reasons that motivate people to break the law are identified; the most significant sociological theories of crime also are identified. It is emphasized that in connection with urbanization, the features of criminological planning also undergo certain changes and modifications. Innovative methodologies appear with the appropriate set of principles, methods and technologies, which are specially selected to solve a specific criminological problem. By means of a comparative analysis, the most stable differences in the concepts of «criminological planning» and «criminological forecasting» have been identified. The theory of crime, types and stages of criminological planning are considered; the necessary set of methods, techniques, techniques and tactics for the implementation of criminological planning to achieve the goals and objectives on the path to sustainable development of the state. A set of proposals and recommendations for improving criminological planning in the light of current trends has been formulated and substantiated. The main strains of optimizing criminological planning are: the formulation of the system of state anti-criminological educational policy; cooperation with institutions of community support; introduction into practice of foreign experience in conducting strategic sessions; the formation of a creative position, necessary for the implementation of thorough management of anti-criminological programs.
